Eight years ago, 100,000s of people died in the Haitianearthquake. Many people donated money, but Ian Rosenberger was compelled to do more.

Ian co-founded Thread International, which has shipped nearly 200,000 lbs of recycled plastic out of Haiti to be processed into fabric. This has also created jobs for Haitian families and represents a forward thinking solution to issues of poverty..

Currently, the Thread Team is busy running a kickstarter campaign for a line of backpacks and other workweek essentials made with this important social mission.

We discuss traveling to Haiti, the doubts and stress that comes along with running a company, and the value of professional persistence.
